- AAndreiNew York City •2 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoScoring a reservation at Don Angie isn’t easy, but it was absolutely worth it. The restaurant did not disappoint! Every dish has its own creative twist, making even familiar classics feel special. And the lasagna? Next level! The service was just as impressive. The waiters were extremely professional yet relaxed and friendly—attentive without being in your face. What really sets Don Angie apart is that it’s not just a place you go once to see what all the hype is about. It’s a place you genuinely want to come back to. And we definitely will!More infoDon Angie$$$$• Contemporary Italian• West Village•4.8

- DDorothyGoldPhoenix / Arizona •13 reviews5.0Dined on 12 Oct 2026This was my fourth time here and it never disappoints. The ambience is fun, vibrant and happening. It's got an energetic urban feel. We love the food from salads to entrees and the house wine is delicious. They can accommodate large groups and they are also accommodating to small children. I do recommend calling ahead for a reservation. Do give this restaurant a try. You'll have a fun and yummy meal with a nice dining experience!More infoZia Maria - Chelsea$$$$• Italian• Chelsea•4.5
